Let Me Straighten My Crown

Psalm 100:3a, ESV
Know that the LORD, he is God! It is he who made us, and we are his.

Somedays I feel defeated, beat down, ran over, and then backed up to see what they hit!  Satan just attacks, attacks and then just for fun attacks some more.

When this happens I have two choices: Rollover and give in or Fight! My best weapons to fight are to remind Satan just who I am and who I serve.

I am…

John 1:2 I am a child of God

Romans 15:7 I am accepted by God

Colossians 2:9-10 I am brought into fullness by the head over EVERY power and authority (yes, even yours Satan!)

1 Corinthians 6:16 I am one with the Lord in spirit.

Romans 6:6 I am no longer a slave to sin

Jeremiah 1:5 I am a prophet to the nations

1 Corinthians 6:19 I am a temple of the Holy Spirit

And my personal favorite: I am chosen, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that I may declare the praises of him who called me out of darkness into his wonderful light! 1 Peter 2:9

Here are few sayings that roam around in my head when I need a little Holy Spirit pep-talk.

Instead of “Don’t mess with the bull, young man. You’ll get the horns,”.
I prefer, Don’t mess with the Saint, dear Satan. You’ll get the cross.

OR

*SPOILER ALERT* I read the end of the book.

OR

Don’t make me straighten my crown and remind you who I am!

Yes, Satan look out because I just remembered that the LORD, he is God! It is he who made me, and I am His.
